Morphology
The meaning 'the group of employees engaged in research' is directly and compositionally derived from 'research' (the activity) modifying 'staff' (employees); this noun–noun/attributive pattern is a standard, productive English construction. Cross-linguistically and in general usage the logic is transparent, so a B1 learner who knows both constituent words will readily understand the phrase.
Etymology
Research staff joins research, work to find new knowledge, and staff, the people who work at a place. Imagine a team in a lab all looking for answers together, and you can see why research staff means 'the group of employees who do research'.
